Opening of the Picasso Museum Paris (Musée national Picasso Paris), located in the Marais Quarter. Paris 1985.

At the 1985 opening of the Musée national Picasso-Paris, an elderly man with white hair and a beard sits in a wheelchair, looking down contemplatively while holding a glass. He is dressed in dark clothing with a patterned scarf. Behind him, a large cubist painting by Picasso depicts the distorted faces of two figures in a passionate kiss, its palette dominated by blues, greys, and black. To the left, another man in a light-colored suit is seen walking away.
